CLASSIC car owners revved up their engines and made their way to Motorlux Ford in Wantage for a day which mixed nostalgia and the future.

As well as dozens of vintage vehicles the new 2015 Ford Mustang was on display at the event on Sunday ahead of its sales release in the UK next year.

Dealer managing director Richard Shepherd said: “We had well over 30 cars arrive, on top of the cars we manage, and the star of the show was the Mustang.

“About 400 people came along so I was delighted with that.”

Mr Shepherd’s daughter, Emily, 18, was one of the many admirers of a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro.

She said: “I love cars, my dad got me into them from a really young age. I would say the Camaro is definitely my favourite car. I love the sound of the engine and it is so pretty.”
